I hope everyone is having a fab Monday so far!!!
I often find myself searching for some motivation within...and it always helps to REEMBER what my reaons are for wanting to lose weight.....so...here are mine...

-to be HEALTHY, and the best possible 'me'...inside and ou
-to feel fabulous in my own skin
-to be able to rock a swimsuit without trying to 'hide my flaws'
-to fit back into my 'little' clothes
-because gosh-darn-it, I DESERVE to look the way I want!! :D

These are just some reasons that come to mind....and with that, I will RESIST the urge to head over to the candy dish at work, and instead, sip on some water. :)

Happy Monday everyone!! you deserve!!

    -get into baby making shape so I don't feel even worse after the baby comes!!
